To my dear friends and companions on the journey of faith, the Richmond Church of the Brethren, may God’s boundless love, Christ’s grace, and the Spirit’s peace bless each one of you. 

As much as I appreciate the important seasons of Advent and Christmas, awaiting and celebrating the in-breaking of God into our lives and our world in radical ways, I’m also a big fan of the less-liturgical holiday of the New Year. It provides me (and you) with an oft-needed vantage point to look back, to look within, and to look down the road ahead. 

Months in the making, the new Richmond Church of the Brethren web site is now online!

We hope this site becomes a useful tool for us as we continue to grow as a community. Whether you're a first time visitor who has just stumbled across our site or already a member of the church you'll find lots of information and opportunities for interaction here.
